AFTER twenty-four years have
passed the ex-union and ex-confede.
rate soldiers met on the old battle
field of Gettysburg last Sunday. But
instead of the roar of cannon and the
clashing of steel as sabcr met saber
in deadly conflict, the old veterans
of the north and south marched side
by side to the place where General
Pickett met his Waterloo defeat and
dedicated the monuments commemc.
rating the greatest charge known to
the world. After the dedication the
boys who wore the blue gave three
rousing cheers for those who wore The
gray in that famous advance, and was
heartily returned by the southern
boys for those who defeated them on
the third day of July, 1863.

Main 81 Co.'s show.

Wm. Main 81 Co.'s show exhibited
here last Friday to q fair audience.
A free exhibition was given outside
the tent by tight rope walker and
the proprietor of the show who viii.
fed the editor of this paper and de.
MED everything we published about
the show. He said We had slandcred'
the show and lied about it, but failed
to prove his dogmatic assertions.
His harangue was both puerile and
nonsensical. AS reported in the AR.
GUS, the show was small, snide af
fair taken as whole. They had n
contortionist who was good, and
couple of balancers who are propably
not excelled, but further that this the
show was o chestnut" Of the away
back variety. The Grafton Eugle has
the following to say of the show:
Main IL Co.'s circus spread its canvas
on tho hill Just outside the corporate linn
its last Tuesday and proceeded to para
lyze our people with their wonderful per-
iormances. The tent as so diminutive
that many persons holding tickets are
said TO have wandered into the canvass
covered lemonade stands i'm search OF the
circus. Whom the hour for the Show ar
rived the crowd was smaller vet than the
lent, but the MANAGER, with wonderful
presence OF mind, sent down the band
and screnaded the newspaper Offices to
induce those having complimentaries 10
attend, and by this happy ru,o considers
ably increased the crowd. There was no
ring, no horses AID consequently TO rid
ing. With ono or two exceptions the
show was below tho ordinary. A boy
contortionist, trapezo performer and a
couple Of tumblors did right we'll the lat,
ter, in fact, Icing first class and probably
unequalled. The dogs, too, were sur
passinSly well trained and have perhaps
Deyer been beaten oxcep. by their brutal
trainer VIII" destroyed the pleasure Of the
exhibition by cruelty beating one Of the
ours i'm tho presence Of tho audience. Tho
clowns were farce, the jokes worse. Ono
thing, however, can be said i'm favor OF
Main q Co.'s circus ut this place, they
bad consideration enough to pitch their
toni next door to a cemo 'ory,so that after
the audience had listened 10 thu clowns
awhile they could walk out i'm the gray a..
yard and cheer themselves up a little. II
was kindness that was appreciated.
